D420! How about that?

For you Simon

I'm in.

I thought that this was a family-friendly forum! Since when is this sort of blatent pornography tolerated?

 

[buddhasummer]

Hmmmmm.... (In typical SP fashion for marketing, bring back the old....)

Curious as to the "guts". Wonder how similar to a past design? Love my Pilot (converted), Air1, and D series. X was a disaster...

It is the only new thing from SP that I am interested in... wonder if it makes it to the US.

You know I'll get them somehow, I'll get for you too if you can't get there.

where does this actually sit in the lineup as far as second stage WOB is concerned?

 

[buddhasummer]

I wonder how long until can be purchased as second stage only. SP always (?) do this upon initial release. Poo, was hoping for me to be able to buy two for me on behalf of Santa.

Hopefully at least as good as an early D400.

Looking at schematic it seems at least a "little" more technician friendly, hopefully not at a cost to performance. I always get super scared removing the old rubber purge covers.

and where does that sit, say compared to A700/S620Ti

 

[buddhasummer]

I can get for around $660 but as Thomas said, only with MK25 Evo. Poo. Not a cheap proposition. Priced TOTL.

IMO better than both.

(Added: noticeably better, super smooth, natural and effortless)
